    D&D 5E (2014) Quick! Give me a jungle random encounter

    A group of Brelish Cavalry Bears that have gone feral. So Bears, except they're still wearing at least part of their barding and have higher than normal AC. Possibly Magic barding.

    D&D 5E (2014) Player agency and Paladin oath.

    Please let's take a moment to examine the Tenets of the Oath of Devotion Honesty: Don't lie or cheat. Let your word be your promise. Courage: Never fear to act, though caution is wise. Compassion: Aid others, protect the weak, and punish those who threaten them. Show mercy to your foes, but...

    Pathfinder 2E Here's What's Coming For Pathfinder Over The Coming Year

    So is the Lost Omens Ancestory Guide gonna be like the Advanced Race Guide from PF1?

    D&D 5E (2014) Unearthed Arcana: 16 New Feats

    As I said on Twitter, I can see Eldritch Adept for Armor of Shadows becoming a standard choice. Free no spell slot Mage Armor for the cost of an ASI. Not the worst deal in the world.

    D&D 5E (2014) Why is there a limit to falling damage?

    "As you fall, you strike a glowing discontinuity. Briefly, you feel like you're being turned inside out through your bottom. You catch a glimpse of your own tonsils as you fold upon yourself and back again. For a fraction of a second, you're certain that you're a petunia in a pot falling...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why is there a limit to falling damage?

    The median distance for fatal falls (according to the reference book Trauma Anesthesia) is 4 stories or 48ft. The average normal person is assumed to be a level 1 commoner. Therefore the average person has 4 hp. Therefore the AVERAGE damage of a 48 foot fall SHOULD be 4 dmg. So, 1d8 per 48...

    D&D 5E (2014) What kind of planar book do you hope for?

    I'd really like a Spelljammer setting book and to have that integrate into Adventurer's Leagues next couple seasons. I'd also accept a Planescape Setting book the same way. I'd also accept any of the other options, but the first two things in that order are my preference. I'm currently at a...

    D&D 5E (2014) I'm writing a setting book. What are your preferences?

    I like this. I'd say my favorite setting books were the 3.x Eberron books, but that's at least partially because it's still my favorite setting. One thing I have always wanted for any setting other than Forgotten Realms or Greyhawk is a Pamphlet or booklet that I can hand to the players to...

    Guns in D&D - A Hot Take

    Historical context on a post that was necro'd after more than a year of dormancy: This thread was started because at the time there were like 14 threads about "Gunz shud werk dis way" which alternated between "Gun does 5d% dmg, ignores armor, can fire 10 times a round, and insta-kill gods on a...

    D&D General Let's Talk About Eberron

    Encounters in Sharn appears to still be Free Via Wizards Remote D&D promotion page. Remote D&D Tips and Tricks | Dungeons & Dragons I haven't used or even read it yet (2 year olds, they fill your time) but I mean for free it's gotta be worth a look

    D&D 5E (2014) The Last Edition of D&D?

    As with several other commentators, I feel like these numbers are presented in a way to support a conclusion not in evidence. It seems reasonable to me to measure the lifespan of a game from the point it is release in a playable form to the point that the superseding game is released in...

    D&D 5E (2014) Which three topics do you most want to receive official (WotC) treatment?

    I was sort of vaguely aware, but I still think that a fully polished version would be a thing worth having. Even if all the bits were pillaged and had the serial numbers filed off, putting them all back together in the original package seems like it would be interesting. To me, at least, far...

    D&D 5E (2014) Which three topics do you most want to receive official (WotC) treatment?

    So probably most of us here know this, but Eberron was the winner of a Setting Design contest ages ago, IIRC back when Dragon was a print Magazine. But they actually retained the option to the top THREE results. One of which (again IIRC) was the work of Rich Burlew creator of OotS. So, I'd...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e "Anyspell," Would You Allow the Enclosed Spell?

    Consider the 3.X spells Shadow Conjuration, Shadow Evocation, and the greater version of each. They let you cast any spell of lower level from a specific school and on top of that as a rider, the spells are 80% illusion so in addition to any other save from the sub-spell, they get a will save...

    D&D 3.x Edition Experience - Did/Do you Play 3rd Edtion D&D? How Was/Is it?

    Exactly. My favorite was the "Sword of Reincarnation" It was a +1 longsword enchanted with Reincarnate so that any creature killed by the sword was then reincarnated as per the Druid spell. "The good news is, You're still alive. The less good news is", rolls d%%, "you're now a Goblin."

    D&D 3.x Edition Experience - Did/Do you Play 3rd Edtion D&D? How Was/Is it?

    I liked 3.x a lot, but I tend to like complex systems. I liked being able to create unexpected synergies by dipping into classes in an odd way. I liked the magic item creation system (mostly), because it allowed for the creation of ridiculous things without DM Fiat. [The only part I really had...

    D&D General Animal PCs?

    Currently playing in a pathfinder game where one of the Party is a Goat that was Awakened and then gained levels in Bard. Ramuel L Jackson is an important part of our team. So, in general, I would assume an animal used as a PC would be Awakened. So, it has Human level Intelligence and can...

    AD&D 2E Edition Experience - Did/Do you Play AD&D 2E? How Was/Is It?

    I started with AD&D 2nd ed when I was like 7. Played it regularly until 3.0 came out I thought and still think that one of the things that made it interesting was the class/race restrictions. One of my favorites was that Gnomes (and only Gnomes) could be a Cleric/Rogue, because Garl...
